Ellie RountreeSeptember 14, 2013Go upstairs to the outdoor bar, order beers and little neck clams from the waitresses. The bloody Mary's and lobster rolls look good, but I haven't tried 'em.
Avin NarasimhanJuly 4, 2017Great spot for drinks on the water. And free popcorn! Get the local IPA, paired perfectly with said popcorn
Tatyana SharoubimJuly 4, 2013Bloody Mary all the way is awesome. Lobster roll if its our first time is def a good start. Crab cake sandwich or mussels are another top choice. Fun party place at night with friends also.
Rooftop bar has two personalities. Daytime: a great group or family lunch with pricey but solid seafood and cold drinks. Nighttime: a crowded college beach bar. Set your expectations appropriately.
Suzanne SweitzerSeptember 8, 2018Fish taco was delicious, especially with the aioli & the fries were fabulous! Lovely view on the patio. Friendly prompt service.
Amy Johnson CookMay 30, 2019Heads up that if you are carded they walk away with ID to scan it and can take a while to bring it back. Service is spotty with even a little bit of a crowd.- Eric AndersenJuly 4, 2013Late nite hits the Vineyard! Open til 1AM on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday…and special occasions like July 3/4
Jeffrey GlueckAugust 15, 2014This is a tourist trap to avoid unless you just like cocktails with a harbor view. The lobster rolls are pre made and not hot. Lobster quesadillas cold. Nothing fresh. Good French fries for kids
Sanaz LimoueeJune 25, 2011Order the best bloody mary with jumbo shrimp or the blueberry & acaia vodka with pink lemonade!! Portions are huge, sushi is good, you can't go wrong.
If you're looking to sip some dangerous sizzurp: Order up a Grapeful Dead - you will thank us the next morning - with well, whoever you "meet" ; ) - Zennan behind the bar is a god and patron saint Read more- Eric AndersenJune 21, 2012Go upstairs, grab a table on the deck, and enjoy fantastic views of Edgartown Harbor!
Bryce StewartSeptember 19, 2016Verify your order. Make sure you know what it comes with. My large to go order was not as expected based on how it was placed and I ended up having to spend more money to get what I actually ordered.
D. HJJune 21, 2011Shrimp and scallop scampi is mouth-watering. Buttery olive oily garlic-y goodness of pasta. Large portion so you won't leave hungry.
Andrea BarrezuetaAugust 31, 2014Decent food. Lobster salad roll doesn't have a ton of mayo (good thing). Avoid the upstairs bar unless you are into frat parties
On a sunny afternoon, grab a couple mudslides and a table on the upstairs deck. Great view of Edgartown harbor.- Andrea BarrezuetaAugust 30, 2014Decent food but the upstairs bar is like going back to high school. Music wasn't bad but ended up wearing everybody's drinks. No one even apologizes!
Danyel SmithJune 16, 2010gt the shrimp cocktail. the fish 'n' chips. sit outside on the downstairs level. watch for the swan. it swims by, hoping for a snack.
Claire BarthelemyAugust 25, 2011If in Edgartown this place is a must! Head up to the roof deck for amazing views
Try the New England Clam Chowder - Probably the best chowder in Edgartown
Erik AJuly 18, 2012Stay away from the Captains Platter - tough whole belly clams, previously frozen shrimp, and flavorless haddock. The french fries were OK. Do yourself a favor and get it from Nancy's in Oak Bluffs.
- Danyel SmithAugust 16, 2011don't even think about it. get the lobster roll or the fish 'n' chips. done.
- Great view of Chappy Island and Edgartown lighthouse!
Ask for Justin or Damaris they really go above and beyond- made our experience great!
Do order drinks from Dan @ the bar. Do request Tamzin for a server. Do get the oysters.
Sit at bar on deck. It's beautiful water view of Chappy! My see GaGa!

"The iconic 1881 lighthouse, originally built for Crane Beach, in Ipswich, was dismantled and brought by barge to the Vineyard. Climb the spiral staircase for views of the harbor and Chappaquiddick."
